-Charlotte-

It had been hours since I spent time at Elianas house I glanced at time and saw it was already 5  " Well that's my cue guys " I said and started to pack my things . Their wasn't much actually My things just consisted of my makeup bag , my phone and my clothes from yesterday .

My current outfit was actually something Eliana gave to me . I was wearing a marshmallow hoodie with leggings . Some people would be weirded out by receiving clothes from their friend but I didn't mind . They were cute and totally my style

Black .....

I said my goodbyes and with that I was heading home

---------

When I knocked on the door and entered I was immediately hugged by my Aunt , Angie " Umm... your squeezing my organs "
" Sorry " she said and pulled away I spent I few minutes examining her face .

She looked petrified , her brown eyes were red from crying her hair was in a sloppy ponytail and she was wearing nothing but a baggy oversized top . Everyone had their lazy days but it was rare to see Aunt Angie like this so rare in fact that I can't thing of a time she looked like this .

She always liked to be clean and descent and presentable " I was so worried , where were you " she said barely above a whisper " I'm so sorry , I attended a party and slept over at my friends house and lost track of time and -"

" It's okay- she said cutting me off- I understand . Your a teenager you go to parties , hang out with your friends and etc and I respect that just tell me in advance to prevent me from going hysterical "
laughing sadly

" You not going hysterical your just worried like I parent or any guardian should so your not mad at me ?" " No , in a way I'm actually glad . Your finally acting your age and letting lose the last time I saw you this happy was when you were with that Justin guy and that shouldn't be the case "

I started  to feel myself tense up at the mention of his name

Justin

I think she started to sense my uneasiness because she mumbled a quick ' sorry' " It's okay " I said reassuringly

--------------

It was my 30 minutes past 9 ( my bedtime ) but I couldn't get myself to sleep every time I tried I would toss and turn . I can't bring myself to sleep after what I put Rio threw 'It's a shame you can't remember what happened or picture his lips brushing against your skin an-' my conscious said

'Shut up ' I said This wasn't the time I seriously needed to take my head out of the gutter and focus . I decided to text him because calling would be too much I would probably stutter and get flustered instead of getting to the point

Me : hi
Him : um ... hey
Me : Look I'm sorry for what I did last night . I'm sure it must have been hard for you
Him : No I'm sorry I should have led you on by kissing you back
Me : It's okay , Thanks you putting up with me
Me : Your a really good friend
Him : K
Me : So were cool ?
Him : Yeah we're totally cool

- Rio-

I stared at my phone in frustration We weren't cool . I didn't want to stay in the fucking friend zone . I wanted her to see me as more than that . I don't know maybe

boyfriend material

I mean I kissed her back for pete's sake . Didn't that mean anything to her . I mean FRIENDS don't just kiss each other , Lovers do but I guess she doesn't see me that way

-----------------------

School was interesting  . Since most of the people attended that party they knew about our kiss and they didn't hesitate to make weird sounds every time we were spotted. People her even making posters that said ' Chio ' or 'I ship Chio ' or ' Riolotte ' .

As cute as all of that was I could tell it was making Charlotte uncomfortable and she was hiding her face in her . I hated seeing her like this . I wanted to see her face and that gorgeous smile I know in love .

Today me and Lucas decided to part from the group and sit together like we use to do so he tell me about the rumors he'd been hearing and I felt like I needed to give Charlotte space because if we sat together it would encourage people to keep teasing us and that's the last thing she needed
